chars such as ', \', \ , etc. Fixed a bug when parsing the GET
   arguments. Added new RPN functions :
   - str_replace( a, b, c ) : replaces all occurences of b with c in a
   - addslashes( s ) : escapes all " and ' with a backslash
   - stripslashes( s ) :  the opposite
   - htmlspecialchars( s ) : replaces &"'<> with their &stuff; equivalent
   - realpath( s ) : returns an absolute file path (see realpath(3))
   And fixed a few memory leaks.

   $-_.+!*'(), unencoded, it also allows to encode any character. It is
   generally considered a good practive to urlencode $+!*'() because
   some buggy browsers (read: M$) have a problem with those characters.
   See the comments in http://fr.php.net/manual/en/function.rawurlencode.php
   for more information.

  Now uses the state variable instead of playlist_IsPlaying. The PLAYLIST_PAUSED state is no longer reliable since the introduction of the state variable for testing if playback is in a paused state. Perhaps we should remove this part of the playlist logic and keep it to RUNNING and STOPPED.

Forward port of branches/0.8.1-jpsaman-thedj revision 12070. The OSD menu subsystem consists of two parts a core part (src/osd, include/vlc_osd.h) and a subfilter (modules/video_filter/osdmenu.c). The OSD menu can be used locally or it can be streamed. It depends on the way the functionality is called from the vlc commandline. Currently there is only one way to make the subpictures appear on the video and that is through the rc-interface. The following commands are supported by it: "menu on" (show OSD menu), "menu off" (hide OSD menu), "menu left" (highlight button on the left), "menu right" (highlight button on the right), "menu up" (highlight button above), "menu down" (highlight button below) or "menu select" (perform hotkey action). When there is no button on the left, right, up or down then the menu-command will be ignored.

To stream use a commandline similar to this:

./vlc dvdsimple:///dev/dvd --sub-filter=osdmenu --osdmenu-file=share/osdmenu/default.cfg --extraintf rc --sout '#transcode{sfilter=osdmenu}:std{mux=ts,access=udp,url=127.0.0.1:1234}' -vvvv

For local playback a commandline like this is needed:

./vlc dvdsimple:///dev/dvd --sub-filter=osdmenu --osdmenu-file=share/osdmenu/default.cfg -vvvv

Have fun with the basic functionality - jpsaman.

The OSD menu pictures in two flavors a simple (default.cfg) and a more full version (dvd.cfg). (forward ported from branches/0.8.1-jpsaman-thedj)

Flagging BLOCK_FLAG_DISCONTINUITY for every PID in the input when the slider is moved on the GUI or a jump in the stream is made. It is also propagated to the mpegvideo packetizer. The packetizer has a new mode to sync on I-frame boundary after such a jump. It avoids sending some broken frames to the client. (Forward port of branches/0.8.1-jpsaman-thedj revision 11067 and 11842.)

Add a fake language type for OSD subpictures. This allows you to select the OSD menu subtitle from the GUI.

* re-enable the rt-priority line for OSX. it's not broken, just prints annoying error messages (refs #206)

  Playlist item commands are soooo dirty :D

Some one with VC7 should test this commit

* Don't use the bandlimited resampler for downsampling (skew resampling for instance). The resampler doesn't have a low pass filter? This closes #256
 - on a side note, it also seems to fix the stack corruption (resulting in deadlock) issues i was having with audio output that was being resampled by auhal.

Add a test for pkg-config for ffmpeg. It now do in order: ffmpeg-config, pkg-config, default location, given tree. fixes #306. 
To cross-compile on a debian, use PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/win32/lib/pkgconfig and --with-ffmpeg-config-path=somewhere with no ffmpeg-config (/usr/win32/bin by ex)

   vlc_next, vlc_previous, playlist_empty. Miscellaneous coding style fixes.

* playlist.m: fixed some "makes integer from pointer without a cast" warnings and moved "j" inside the #if 0 - block, so it isn't detected as "unused"
* wizard.m: run "resetWizard" when returning to the first page. Otherwise the encap-tab might not work properly (when switching from Streaming to Transcoding after having passed the streaming-method-tab)

Added new hotkeys (key-intf-hide, key-jump-3sec, key-jump+3sec, key-title-next, key-title-prev, key-chapter-next, key-chapter-prev) and expanded the hotkey structure. This is a forward port from branch vlc-0.8.1-jpsaman-thedj revision 11756.
